Yes, you can. Failure to yield, obstructing traffic and failure to maintain minimum speeds where posted are all ticketable and probably more. Joey?

I never have, really, but you can get pulled over.

Driving way too slow, especially on the freeway when everyone expects at least a certain speed, can be dangerous.

Amusing to me, reading a story where another STi is asshatting on the same stretch of road where I got pulled over for someone else's idiocy...

Speaking of which, I saw that guy the other day Cory.

Still sliding his car around on an intersection of Double R and Sandhill.

:facepalm:

I get nicer when I drink.

I got written up for 125 in a 65 like 5 years ago when my car was stock. It was an open empty freeway with no onramps/offramps so I decided to take my chances and see how fast my newish car was. There was a speed trap on the other side of the freeway with a CHP Crown Vic and Camaro hanging out in some trees. They came screaming across the median, sideways with rooster tails of mud. I pulled over so fast my stock pads were smoking. The Camaro actually had to swerve around me to avoid hitting me...or maybe he just wanted to "cage me in". They pulled their guns on me and looked like they were ready to open fire. The first thing the cop said, (after, "throw me your keys!!!") was "Why would you do that!!!!!??". Of course I had no answer for him. When I told them I was heading to Grandma's they mellowed out and decided to only write me a ticket.

I think the judge had me pay ~$400 and my insurance was sky high until I moved to NV, which somehow expunged my record.

So, anger is cyclical. I didn't know that.

You can get a ticket for anything and everything. No embellishing needed.

^You guys should replace that, "No Hay Excusa Por Violencia Domestica" bumper sticker with that. :P

Arrows, getting flamed on the internet and $200 is a small price to pay for a potentially very serious mistake.

There is a lot of responsibility that comes with owning a high-performance machine, and in our society in general we don't pride ourselves on teaching good driving skills or judgment. The steady progression of kids totaling cars is proof of that.

Take the advice, change your approach, let your judgment be equal to the car's capability. There are some pretty fun ways to find the limits of your machine without getting yourself and others killed.

Stick around, you won't be sorry.

EDIT: oh, in answer to your question - I have gotten 3 tickets in my life, the last one was five years ago for doing 45 in a 35 in front of the Forestry office in Carson on 395. Meh.

Isn't the highest ticket in the US that dude in a Veyron in TX or something? No Subie will ever equal that.....

I thought the highest ticket was some guy on a turbo motorcycle that got busted for either 200+ mph or 200+ mph over the limit. :lol:

This is one of the reasons the STi lands in the "Top ten most expensive cars to insure."
Learn from the internet beating you have taken.:) Be safe plz!!

Speed Kills

Poor Arrows, been here less than a month. I hope to see him on the track.

He has not been online since his first post. His reaction to this thread will foreshadow his future participation as a long lasting seccs member.:lol: IMO this is not even close to being SECCS Flamed. This is like getting a sun burn from planting flowers all day where as a regular SECCS flame fest is like getting naked and then deciding to drop a frozen turkey into a vat of hot grease.

Merely a flesh wound.

Yeah we where really harsh on you as well. I know I was, but you stuck it out. Way to go.

NO-only because they have yet to catch me but then living in Doyle your escape routes are endless!!!! :D

+1. 100% took his hazing like a champ.

I think he and Cody probably took some of the harshest SECCS has to offer, and both seemed to come through it with their senses of humors intact, and are some of the better contributing members these days.

I kinda feel bad for jumping on them so much. But just kinda. :P

I like to believe that our hazing, in fact, helped them to become better people.

In fact, without our hazing, they wouldn't be nearly half the men they are now.

Its dildo's like YOU that cause ME to have such high insurance rates......either go to a fucking track or take the fucking bus......the freeway isn't your personal test track, GOD....there are so many inconsiderate pricks on the road anymore.....:mad:

Yeah thanks for not giving up on me guys. It was hard and we all got through it.

What he said^
